* [[Garlic]] : This is another great natural antiseptic. For this remedy, you'll need some fresh garlic, a knife and some band-aids. First, start by washing the affected area with soap and water, then dry thoroughly. Next, slice a clove of garlic into "discs." Take a disc of garlic and rub it all over the skin tag. Lastly, cut the disc down to the size of the skin tag, apply it and cover with a band-aid. Do this in the morning and leave it on all day. Then remove the band-aid and garlic before bed and wash the affected area. Repeat this process until the skin tag falls off, 4-6 days. Alternatively, the garlic can be applied before bed and removed in the morning.
* [[Apple cider vinegar]] : Yet another wonderful use for apple cider vinegar. Apple cider vinegar, like garlic and tea tree oil, is also a natural antiseptic. Use this vinegar to remove skin tags by first cleaning the affected area and running warm water over the skin tags until they become soft. Once the skin tags become soft, apply a cotton swab soaked in apple cider vinegar to the skin tag for 20 minutes. Next, rinse the apple cider vinegar off. Repeat this process 2-3 times a day until the skin tag falls off.
* [[Bloodroot]] : Due to its power and effectiveness while treating skin tags, bloodroot should be administered with extreme caution and it shouldn't come in contact with healthy skin because it will result in damaging it. It is therefore advisable that bloodroot salve or bloodroot paste isn't applied to skin tags on eyelids or any other sensitive areas like genitals, etc.
